In this ink composition, the mass ratio of the content of the light-scattering particles to the content of the luminescent nanocrystal particles is 0.1 to 5.0. The ink composition of one embodiment is a color filter ink composition used for forming a pixel portion of a color filter by a method such as a photolithography method or an ink jet method.

  The ink composition of one embodiment is suitably used for forming a color filter pixel portion by an ink jet method. When forming a color filter pixel portion using a conventional ink composition by an inkjet method, it has been difficult to reduce leakage light from the pixel portion. On the other hand, according to the ink composition of the embodiment, it is possible to obtain a pixel portion that is excellent in the effect of reducing leakage light even in the ink jet method.

Further, as the semiconductor nanocrystal particles, it is preferable to use particles having the least adverse effect on the human body or the like. When semiconductor nanocrystal particles containing cadmium, selenium, etc. are used as luminescent nanocrystal particles, the semiconductor nanocrystal particles that do not contain the above elements (cadmium, selenium, etc.) as much as possible are selected and used alone, or the above elements It is preferable to use in combination with other luminescent nanocrystal particles so as to reduce as much as possible.

  The shape of the luminescent nanocrystal particles is not particularly limited, and may be any geometric shape or any irregular shape. The shape of the luminescent nanocrystal particles may be, for example, spherical, ellipsoidal, pyramidal, disc-shaped, branched, net-shaped, rod-shaped, or the like. However, as the luminescent nanocrystal particles, it is possible to further improve the uniformity and fluidity of the ink composition by using particles having less directionality (for example, spherical, tetrahedral, etc.). Is preferable.

  The average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the luminescent nanocrystal particles may be 1 nm or more from the viewpoint that light emission at a desired wavelength is easily obtained and from the viewpoint of excellent dispersibility and storage stability. Or 2 nm or more. From the viewpoint of easily obtaining a desired emission wavelength, it may be 40 nm or less, 30 nm or less, or 20 nm or less. The average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the luminescent nanocrystal particles is obtained by measuring with a transmission electron microscope or a scanning electron microscope and calculating the volume average diameter.

  The luminescent nanocrystal particles preferably have an organic ligand on the surface thereof from the viewpoint of dispersion stability. The organic ligand may be coordinated to the surface of the luminescent nanocrystal particle, for example. In other words, the surface of the luminescent nanocrystal particle may be passivated by the organic ligand. Moreover, the luminescent nanocrystal particle | grains may have a polymer dispersing agent on the surface. In one embodiment, for example, the organic dispersant is removed from the luminescent nanocrystal particles having the above-described organic ligand, and the organic dispersant and the polymer dispersant are exchanged, whereby the polymer dispersant is formed on the surface of the luminescent nanocrystal particle. May be combined. However, from the viewpoint of dispersion stability when an inkjet ink is used, it is preferable that a polymer dispersant is added to the luminescent nanocrystal particles in which the organic ligand is coordinated.

  Examples of the organic ligand include TOP (trioctylphosphine), TOPO (trioctylphosphine oxide), oleic acid, oleylamine, octylamine, trioctylamine, hexadecylamine, octanethiol, dodecanethiol, hexylphosphonic acid ( HPA), tetradecylphosphonic acid (TDPA), and octylphosphinic acid (OPA).

The mass may be not more than 50% by mass or may be not more than 50% by mass. In this specification, “the mass of the non-volatile content of the ink composition” refers to the mass obtained by subtracting the mass of the solvent from the total mass of the ink composition when the ink composition contains a solvent. When a solvent is not included, the total mass of the ink composition is indicated.

  By the way, since the luminescent nanocrystal particle has a surface atom that can be a coordination site, it has high reactivity. Luminescent nanocrystal particles have such a high reactivity and a large surface area as compared with general pigments, and therefore easily cause aggregation of particles. Since the light-emitting nanocrystal particles emit light due to the quantum size effect, when the particles aggregate, a quenching phenomenon occurs, resulting in a decrease in the fluorescence quantum yield and a decrease in luminance and color reproducibility. On the other hand, in this embodiment, since the ink composition contains a polymer dispersant, the luminescent nanocrystal particles are difficult to aggregate. Therefore, in this embodiment, content of the luminescent nanocrystal particle can be made into the said range.

  The shape of the light scattering particles may be spherical, filamentous, indeterminate. However, as the light scattering particles, it is possible to use particles having less directivity as the particle shape (for example, spherical, tetrahedral, etc. particles), thereby improving the uniformity, fluidity and light scattering of the ink composition. It is preferable in that it is enhanced.

  The average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the light-scattering particles in the ink composition may be 0.05 μm or more, or 0.2 μm or more, from the viewpoint of being excellent in the effect of reducing leakage light. It may be 0.3 μm or more. The average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the light-scattering particles in the ink composition may be 1.0 μm or less, 0.6 μm or less, from the viewpoint of excellent ejection stability. It may be 4 μm or less.

It may be 0.0 μm, 0.2 to 0.6 μm, 0.2 to 0.4 μm, 0.3 to 1.0 μm, 0.3 to 0.6 μm, or 0.3 to 0.4 μm. From the viewpoint of easily obtaining such an average particle diameter (volume average diameter), the average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the light-scattering particles used may be 50 nm or more and 1000 nm or less. The average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the light-scattering particles is obtained by measuring with a dynamic light scattering nanotrack particle size distribution meter and calculating the volume average diameter. The average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the light-scattering particles used is obtained by measuring the particle diameter of each particle with, for example, a transmission electron microscope or a scanning electron microscope and calculating the volume average diameter.

  The content of the light-scattering particles may be 0.1% by mass or more based on the non-volatile content of the ink composition, and may be 1% by mass or more from the viewpoint of being excellent in the effect of reducing leakage light. Alternatively, it may be 5% by mass or more, 7% by mass or more, 10% by mass or more, or 12% by mass or more. The content of the light-scattering particles may be 60% by mass or less and 50% by mass based on the mass of the non-volatile content of the ink composition from the viewpoint of being excellent in the effect of reducing leakage light and excellent in ejection stability. Or 40% by mass or less, 30% by mass or less, 25% by mass or less, 20% by mass or less, or 15% by mass. It may be the following. In this embodiment, since the ink composition contains a polymer dispersant, the light scattering particles can be favorably dispersed even when the content of the light scattering particles is within the above range.

  The mass ratio of the content of the light scattering particles to the content of the light emitting nanocrystal particles (light scattering particles / light emitting nanocrystal particles) is 0.1 to 5.0. The mass ratio (light-scattering particles / light-emitting nanocrystal particles) may be 0.2 or more or 0.5 or more from the viewpoint of excellent leakage light reduction effect. The mass ratio (light scattering particles / luminescent nanocrystal particles) may be 2.0 or less, or 1.5 or less from the viewpoint of excellent leakage light reduction effect and excellent continuous discharge properties during ink jet printing. It may be. The mass ratios (light scattering particles / luminescent nanocrystal particles) are 0.1 to 2.0, 0.1 to 1.5, 0.2 to 5.0, 0.2 to 2.0, 0.0. It may be 2 to 1.5, 0.5 to 5.0, 0.5 to 2.0, or 0.5 to 1.5. In addition, it is thought that leakage light reduction by light-scattering particles is based on the following mechanism. That is, when no light-scattering particles are present, it is considered that the backlight light only passes almost straight through the pixel portion and is less likely to be absorbed by the light-emitting nanocrystal particles. On the other hand, if the light-scattering particles are present in the same pixel portion as the light-emitting nanocrystal particles, the backlight light is scattered in all directions in the pixel portion, and the light-emitting nanocrystal particles can receive it. Even if the same backlight is used, it is considered that the light absorption amount in the pixel portion increases. As a result, it is considered that leakage light can be prevented by such a mechanism.

From the viewpoint of improving the wear resistance, it may be 750 or more, 1000 or more, or 2000 or more. From the viewpoint of obtaining an appropriate viscosity as an inkjet ink, it may be 500000 or less, 300000 or less, or 200000 or less. However, the molecular weight after crosslinking is not limited to this.

  The content of the thermosetting resin is the viewpoint that an appropriate viscosity is easily obtained as an inkjet ink, the viewpoint that the curability of the ink composition is good, and the solvent resistance of the pixel portion (cured product of the ink composition). From the viewpoint of improving the wear resistance, it may be 10% by mass or more, 15% by mass or more, or 20% by mass or more, based on the mass of the nonvolatile content of the ink composition. From the viewpoint that the viscosity of the inkjet ink is not too high and the thickness of the pixel portion is not too thick for the light conversion function, the content of the thermosetting resin is based on the mass of the non-volatile content of the ink composition. It may be 90% by mass or less, 80% by mass or less, 70% by mass or less, 60% by mass or less, or 50% by mass or less.

  In this embodiment, the ink composition only needs to contain at least one of a photopolymerizable compound and a thermosetting resin, and may contain both a photopolymerizable compound and a thermosetting resin. . When the ink composition contains a photopolymerizable compound, the ink composition may not contain a thermosetting resin. Moreover, the ink composition does not need to contain a photopolymerizable compound, when containing a thermosetting resin. From the viewpoint of storage stability of an ink composition containing luminescent nanocrystal particles (for example, quantum dots) and durability (wet heat stability, etc.) of a pixel portion (cured product of the ink composition), a photopolymerizable compound In addition, it is preferable to use a thermosetting resin among the thermosetting resins, the storage stability of the ink composition containing the luminescent nanocrystal particles (for example, quantum dots), and the low temperature that is not easily deteriorated by heating of the quantum dots. It is more preferable to use a photo-radically polymerizable compound from the viewpoint of being able to be cured at a photo-cation, and from the viewpoint that a pixel portion (cured product of the ink composition) can be formed without being subjected to oxygen inhibition in the curing process. It is preferable to use a functional compound.

  When the ink composition contains a photopolymerizable compound and a thermosetting resin, the total content of the photopolymerizable compound and the thermosetting resin is determined from the viewpoint that an appropriate viscosity is easily obtained as an inkjet ink. From the viewpoint of improving the properties, and improving the solvent resistance and abrasion resistance of the pixel portion (cured product of the ink composition), it is 3% by mass or more based on the mass of the nonvolatile content of the ink composition.

  The ink composition of the present embodiment can be applied as an ink used in a known and commonly used color filter manufacturing method, but without wasting waste of relatively expensive materials such as luminescent nanocrystal particles and solvents. It is possible to form a color filter pixel portion (light conversion layer) only by using a necessary amount at a required location, and to prepare and use it appropriately so as to be suitable for an inkjet method rather than for a photolithography method. preferable.

  The viscosity of the ink composition is, for example, 2 mPa · s or more, 5 mPa · s or more, or 7 mPa · s or more from the viewpoint of ejection stability during ink jet printing. The viscosity of the ink composition may be 20 mPa · s or less, 15 mPa · s or less, or 12 mPa · s or less. When the viscosity of the ink composition is 2 mPa · s or more, the meniscus shape of the ink composition at the tip of the ink discharge hole of the discharge head is stabilized, so that the discharge control of the ink composition (for example, the discharge amount and the discharge timing) Control). On the other hand, when the viscosity is 20 mPa · s or less, the ink composition can be smoothly discharged from the ink discharge hole. The viscosity of the ink composition is 2 to 20 mPa · s, 2 to 15 mPa · s, 2 to 12 mPa · s, 5 to 20 mPa · s, 5 to 15 mPa · 2 to 20 mPa · s, 7 to 15 mPa · s, 7 to 12 mPa · s. -S, s, or 7-12 mPa * s may be sufficient. The viscosity of the ink composition is measured by, for example, an E-type viscometer.

  The surface tension of the ink composition is preferably a surface tension suitable for an ink jet system, specifically, a range of 20 to 40 mN / m is preferable, and a range of 25 to 35 mN / m is more preferable. . By making the surface tension within this range, the occurrence of flight bending can be suppressed. Note that the flight bend means that when the ink composition is ejected from the ink ejection hole, the landing position of the ink composition deviates by 30 μm or more from the target position. When the surface tension is 40 mN / m or less, the meniscus shape at the tip of the ink discharge hole is stable, and thus the discharge control of the ink composition (for example, control of the discharge amount and discharge timing) becomes easy. On the other hand, when the surface tension is 20 mN / m or less, the occurrence of flight bending can be suppressed. That is, a pixel portion that is not accurately landed on the pixel portion formation region to be landed and is insufficiently filled with the ink composition, or a pixel portion formation region (or pixel portion) adjacent to the pixel portion formation region to be landed Thus, the ink composition does not land and the color reproducibility does not deteriorate.

  The ink composition is not limited to the effect of the present invention, but other than luminescent nanocrystal particles, light scattering particles, photopolymerizable compounds, thermosetting resins, polymer dispersants, polymerization initiators and organic ligands. These components may be further contained. Examples of other components include a sensitizer and a solvent.

[Sensitizer]
As the sensitizer, amines that do not cause an addition reaction with the photopolymerizable compound and the thermosetting resin can be used. Examples of the sensitizer include trimethylamine, methyldimethanolamine, triethanolamine, p-diethylaminoacetophenone, ethyl p-dimethylaminobenzoate, isoamyl p-dimethylaminobenzoate, N, N-dimethylbenzylamine, 4, 4′-bis (diethylamino) benzophenone and the like can be mentioned.

[solvent]
Examples of the solvent include ethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol dibutyl ether, diethyl adipate, dibutyl oxalate, dimethyl malonate, diethyl malonate, dimethyl succinate, and diethyl succinate. 1,4-butane all diacetate, glyceryl triacetate and the like.

  The boiling point of the solvent is preferably 180 ° C. or higher from the viewpoint of continuous ejection stability of the inkjet ink. Further, since it is necessary to remove the solvent from the ink composition before the ink composition is cured when the pixel portion is formed, the boiling point of the solvent is preferably 300 ° C. or less from the viewpoint of easy removal of the solvent.

  When a thermosetting resin is not used and a photopolymerizable compound is not used, a color filter pixel portion (light that has less unevenness by improving the fluidity of the ink composition and the viewpoint of preparing the ink composition to be uniform) From the viewpoint of forming the conversion layer), it is preferable to use a solvent. On the other hand, when a photopolymerizable compound is used, it is possible to disperse the light-scattering particles and the light-emitting nanocrystal particles in the photopolymerizable compound without a solvent. In this case, there is an advantage that a step of removing the solvent by drying is not necessary when forming the pixel portion.

  Although one embodiment of the color filter ink composition has been described above, the ink composition of the above-described embodiment can be used in, for example, a photolithography system in addition to the ink jet system. In this case, the ink composition contains an alkali-soluble resin as a binder polymer.

  When the ink composition is used in a photographic system, first, the ink composition is applied onto a substrate, and when the ink composition contains a solvent, the ink composition is further dried to form a coating film. The coating film thus obtained is soluble in an alkali developer and is patterned by being treated with the alkali developer. At this time, since the alkali developer is mostly an aqueous solution from the viewpoint of easiness of waste liquid treatment of the developer, the coating film of the ink composition is treated with the aqueous solution. On the other hand, in the case of an ink composition using luminescent nanocrystal particles (quantum dots or the like), the luminescent nanocrystal particles are unstable with respect to water, and the luminescent property (for example, fluorescence) is impaired by moisture. For this reason, in the present embodiment, an inkjet method that does not require treatment with an alkaline developer (aqueous solution) is preferable.

  Even when the coating film of the ink composition is not treated with an alkali developer, when the ink composition is alkali-soluble, the coating film of the ink composition easily absorbs moisture in the atmosphere, and the time As the time elapses, the light-emitting property (eg, fluorescence) of the light-emitting nanocrystal particles (quantum dots or the like) is impaired. From this point of view, in the present embodiment, the coating film of the ink composition is preferably insoluble in alkali. That is, the ink composition of the present embodiment is preferably an ink composition capable of forming an alkali-insoluble coating film. Such an ink composition can be obtained by using an alkali-insoluble photopolymerizable compound and / or an alkali-insoluble thermosetting resin as the photopolymerizable compound and / or thermosetting resin. The coating film of the ink composition is insoluble in alkali. The amount of dissolution of the coating film of the ink composition at 25 ° C. in a 1% by mass potassium hydroxide aqueous solution is based on the total mass of the coating film of the ink composition. It means 30% by mass or less. The dissolution amount of the coating film of the ink composition is preferably 10% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less. It should be noted that the ink composition is an ink composition capable of forming an alkali-insoluble coating film when it is applied to a substrate and then dried at 80 ° C. for 3 minutes when it contains a solvent. It can confirm by measuring the said dissolution amount of the coating film of thickness 1 micrometer obtained.

The resin may be further mixed. According to this method, the light scattering particles can be sufficiently dispersed. Therefore, an ink composition that can reduce leakage light in the pixel portion can be easily obtained.

  In the step of preparing a dispersion of light-scattering particles, the light-scattering particles, the polymer dispersant, and optionally a photopolymerizable compound and / or a thermosetting resin are mixed and subjected to a dispersion treatment. Thus, a dispersion of light scattering particles may be prepared. The mixing and dispersing treatment may be performed using a dispersing device such as a bead mill, a paint conditioner, a planetary stirrer or the like. It is preferable to use a bead mill or a paint conditioner from the viewpoint of good dispersibility of the light scattering particles and easy adjustment of the average particle diameter of the light scattering particles to a desired range.

You may further provide the process to prepare. In this case, in the second step, the dispersion of light scattering particles and the dispersion of luminescent nanocrystal particles are mixed. According to this method, the luminescent nanocrystal particles can be sufficiently dispersed. Therefore, an ink composition that can reduce leakage light in the pixel portion can be easily obtained. In the step of preparing a dispersion of luminescent nanocrystal particles, the same dispersing device as the step of preparing a dispersion of light-scattering particles is used, and the luminescent nanocrystal particles, the photopolymerizable compound, and / or Mixing and dispersion treatment with a thermosetting resin may be performed.

  The color filter 100 including the above light conversion layer 30 is preferably used when a light source that emits light having a wavelength in the range of 420 to 480 nm is used.

  For example, the color filter 100 is formed by forming the light-shielding portion 20 on the base material 40 in a pattern, and then forming the ink composition (in the above-described embodiment) on the pixel portion forming region partitioned by the light-shielding portion 20 on the base material 40. Ink-jet ink) can be selectively deposited by an ink-jet method and can be produced by a method of curing the ink composition by irradiation with active energy rays or heating.

  As mentioned above, although one embodiment of the color filter, the light conversion layer, and the manufacturing method thereof has been described, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.

  For example, the light conversion layer may be a pixel portion including a cured product of an ink composition containing blue light-emitting nanocrystal particles instead of or in addition to the third pixel portion 10c. A blue pixel portion). The light conversion layer may include a pixel portion (for example, a yellow pixel portion) including a cured product of an ink composition containing nanocrystal particles that emit light of a color other than red, green, and blue. In these cases, each of the luminescent nanocrystal particles contained in each pixel portion of the light conversion layer preferably has an absorption maximum wavelength in the same wavelength region.

  In addition, at least a part of the pixel portion of the light conversion layer may include a cured product of a composition containing a pigment other than the light-emitting nanocrystal particles.

  The color filter may include an ink repellent layer made of a material having an ink repellency narrower than that of the light shielding portion on the pattern of the light shielding portion. Also, instead of providing an ink repellent layer, a photocatalyst-containing layer as a wettability variable layer is formed in a solid shape in a region including the pixel portion formation region, and then light is passed through the photocatalyst-containing layer through a photomask. Exposure may be performed by irradiation to selectively increase the ink affinity of the pixel portion formation region. Examples of the photocatalyst include titanium oxide.

  The color filter may include an ink receiving layer containing hydroxypropyl cellulose or the like between the base material and the pixel portion.

  The color filter may include a protective layer on the pixel portion. This protective layer flattens the color filter and prevents elution of components contained in the pixel portion, or components contained in the pixel portion and components contained in the photocatalyst containing layer into the liquid crystal layer. It is provided. As the material constituting the protective layer, those used as known color filter protective layers can be used.

  In manufacturing the color filter and the light conversion layer, the pixel portion may be formed by a photolithography method instead of the ink jet method. In this case, first, the ink composition is applied to the base material in layers to form an ink composition layer. Next, the ink composition layer is exposed in a pattern and then developed using a developer. In this way, a pixel portion made of a cured product of the ink composition is formed. Since the developer is usually alkaline, an alkali-soluble polymer is used as the binder polymer. However, the ink jet method is superior to the photolithography method in terms of material use efficiency. This is because, in the photolithography method, approximately 2/3 or more of the material is removed in principle, and the material is wasted. For this reason, in this embodiment, it is preferable to form a pixel part by an inkjet system using inkjet ink.

  In addition to the above-described luminescent nanocrystal particles, the pixel portion of the light conversion layer of the present embodiment may further contain a pigment having substantially the same color as the luminescent color of the luminescent nanocrystal particles. For example, when a pixel portion containing luminescent nanocrystal particles that absorb blue light and emit light is used as the pixel portion of the liquid crystal display element, blue light or quasi-white light having a peak at 450 nm as light from the light source However, when the concentration of the light-emitting nanocrystal particles in the pixel portion is not sufficient, light from the light source passes through the light conversion layer when the liquid crystal display element is driven. The transmitted light (blue light, leakage light) from this light source and the light emitted from the light-emitting nanocrystal particles are mixed. From the viewpoint of preventing the color reproducibility from being lowered due to the occurrence of such color mixture, a pigment may be contained in the pixel portion of the light conversion layer. In order to contain the pigment in the pixel portion, the ink composition may contain a pigment.

  Further, one or two of the red pixel portion (R), the green pixel portion (G), and the blue pixel portion (B) in the light conversion layer of the present embodiment are not included in the light emitting nanocrystal particles. A pixel portion containing a coloring material may be used. As the color material that can be used here, a known color material can be used. For example, as the color material used for the red pixel portion (R), a diketopyrrolopyrrole pigment and / or an anionic red organic dye can be used. Can be mentioned. Examples of the color material used for the green pixel portion (G) include at least one selected from the group consisting of a halogenated copper phthalocyanine pigment, a phthalocyanine green dye, and a mixture of a phthalocyanine blue dye and an azo yellow organic dye. Examples of the color material used for the blue pixel portion (B) include an ε-type copper phthalocyanine pigment and / or a cationic blue organic dye. When used in the light conversion layer, these coloring materials are used in an amount of 1 to 5 masses based on the total mass of the pixel portion (cured product of the ink composition) from the viewpoint of preventing a decrease in transmittance. % Is preferred.
